A bra leaves things to the imagination while still being sexy, often times moreso than just naked

Maybe the ones with bras are able to allure more people?

The starfish, clamshells etc. serve only the purpose of appeasing American religious conservatives.

And, I suppose, to keep Disney’s G to PG rating. Can’t really market a movie to kids and show animated titties, now can you? Also, she’s only 16, so there’s that.
Then again, why is Ariel only 16 to begin with? It’s not like 18 year olds don’t deal with power struggles with their parents. I was having power struggles with mine at 22.

Well, I just found out that manatee mammaries are located in their armpits, so I think we’re going to need to pull up the drawing board on this one. Seems like mermaids need a total do over!

I feel like the classic image the mermaid in my head is clamshells as a bra. However, my extensive mermaid knowledge consists of: ariel, the concept of the undine (which I have never seen depicted and I’m not sure is a mermaid actually, is this something that encompasses mermaids technically? Not really my forte), and decerto, who I have also never seen depicted

You might be thinking of Ariel

Undyne is an undine. So there’s a depiction. They are water nymphs tho. Not technically a mermaid?

Just the kinky ones. The rest wear clamshells

Theory: symbiotic relationship. mermaids produce excessive milk at all life stages so the starfish drink it making the starfish well feed and the mermaid milked (which is important in over production of milk)
You are welcome.

I decided unilaterally that this is canon. Bring in the lorebooks gents we got some corrections and addendums to make
Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I always figured mermaids would be more like cetaceans than fish. Having scales on their tails would be inaccurate, but breathing air, growing hair, and having a horizontal tail fluke are all in-line with mammals/cetaceans.
Not to mention, it would mean mermaids have regular genitals (albeit hidden inside a genital fold, to increase hydrodynamics.) So that’s, uhh… a thing to consider.
MTK@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Umm man had sex with a fish and some very very unlikely offsprings endedup being the humans of the sea and so they dominating it.
What evolution do you need?

Alternate Theory: Mermaid babies look like starfish. That “bra” is actually the normal process for mermaids to carry and feed their young.
